WHY NATO COMES IN GREECE?

It is well known that NATO is a military alliance and goes where war is. But what made this organization to reach a decision of employing its military assets in Aegean Sea? A purely military entity that was presented always in the past where states were incapable of imposing peace and prosperity, some basics conditions for humans to thrive. Greece and Turkey moreover are two members of this alliance with Greece a full member of European Union and euro zone and Turkey a candidate member with a recent agreement with EU for a mutual confrontation of thousands of migrants that flow inside EU states endless.

Europe’s policy entities both states and EU ones failed to face this “human river” coming from Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Africa through Turkey in Aegean Sea waters, passing illegally on Greeks islands and crossing all Southeast Europe, FYROM and Kosovo until Germany as a main final destination. While such a bulk of human pressure is logical to be manageable for a whole nation’s powers EU constitutions, political, intelligence and military seems immature to solve this unwanted in some cases human invasion as well. EU Commissioner a Greek one, EU’s Army Chief a Greek one and Frontex had no solution available to protect EU member’s sovereignty accepting NATO as a last moment solution in a situation that could became from this spring unmanageable. A devastating Europe Spring developing under circumstances as a much violent than the Arab’s one. 

What is surprising from almost 1 million refugees that passed through Greece in 2015 as war displayed persons, mainly without informal state control is that the majority of them didn’t came from Syria where a relentless war takes place but were simple economical travelers that seeks for a better life. Something similar that happened from the start of 20^th century with Europeans moving in USA and Australia. 

So, why NATO came in Greece to check both Greece and Turkey? As it seems the way Alexis Tsipras, Greek PM, handled this obvious for many analysts asymmetric threat did not persuaded European leaders. Many of them criticized him even for his determination to face this threat effectively. A threat that France in Paris terrorist attack and Germany New Years’ Eve became reality with pain and embarrassment for Mrs Merkel and Holland governance. The astonishing phenomenon is that both distinguished leaders support strongly Mr.Tsipras who has managed to deteriorate every economic index, return Greece to recession as published today, closed Greek bank and impose capital controls in Greeks wealth, brings nowadays 57 NATO warships in Aegean Sea and risk even Greek participation in Sengen Treaty. Simply, Alexis Tsipras has become a total disaster for Greece and not only strongly supported from Germany and France. This political issue is something that only Europe’s policy makers can answer indeed as well as how they imagine EU.

As stated publicly in 2015 Symposium on Transnational Organized Crime, TOC that took place in USA recently between USA, Canada and Mexico searching military and SOF Role in Combating Transnational Organized Crime and thedayaftergr published in Greece an impressive number of 320 billion dollars worth drug quantity annually travels in two main routes in Europe and USA along with a 32 billion dollars human trafficking trade one corroding Governments and transitioning states into zombies serving illegal organizations and networks. The route Afghanistan – Iraq – Turkey – Greece – FYROM – Kossovo – Germany penetrates Europe’s West civilization while the other one Colobia – Latin Aerica – USA – Canada the over Atlantic side. 

21th century’s enables such as information and communication technology, transportation advances and fabulous volume of money are game changers. Illicit actors like cartel and gangs, terrorist and some refuges avail themselves of lethal technology, military grade weaponry, real time information and professional services of the highest quality including legal, accounting, technological, and security services. They can easily as it is proved to outman, outspend and outgun formal governments. States that they have formed from Westphalia Treaty in 1648 resulting in impressive results in a short period as a life expectancy surge from 40 to 70 years; per Capita GDP increase from around 600$ to over 10.000$ per year; literacy increase from less than 10% to over 80% of global population.

This improve in humanity is not for granted in 21th century without any reliable alternative if states like Syria and Iraq, Greece and Turkey in future transforms in parasites of illegal networks and contaminate rest Europe’s’ nations and USA. There is no room for illegal safe heavens in   nowadays World that seeks in space humanity’s future without indeed eradicates humans’ roots from Earth paradise.

Reaching a logical conclusion in this short presentation of facts seems that Alexis Tsipras political presence with Mrs Merkel backing while his halting of domestic nations forces in facing above humanity’s illegal threat gave no choice than NATO takes over to defend West civilization including Greece. A country which gave birth in democracy ruling system and been prohibited nowadays to have it soundly in this corner of Earth.

Let God save knowledge…

PS: Three Greek Navy officers were killed in action yesterday in Aegean Sea, executing Mr.Tsipras Governance orders, surprisingly not facing the above World threat! RIP
